Robbie-
  Are you SURE you have the light on the #1 cylinder?  (Now, why would I =
be asking that????...)
Is the flywheel on correctly?

  ok- i got fuel, air, spark, and compression. mechanically the timing =
is right on(i think). Sooo I think I need to turn the distributor to the =
right timing(?). Anyway I hooked up my timing light to the #1 spark plug =
wire(one that goes to #1 cyl), and had a friend crank it. I haven't =
caught a glimpse of the timing mark on the flywheel. So I have just been =
slowly turning the distributor hoping to find the mark, but am not =
finding it. Am I doing this right? Is there another way to check the =
distrib timing? Thanks in advance-
  Rob
